You want to verify my saying by yourself, just hover 32km away and get shot by every SPAAs including SM-SV + BUK + Type 03 and see the results.
It has nothing to do with what I just said. Yes, ITO and Adats are capable in some situations, but they just cannot reach over 12km and hit a chinese 64E 32km away / Mi-28NM 17km away, that’s all I’m saying.
We do finally have the ingame telemetry for the 95Ya6M since last update so you can kinda compare it in that tool. And ive got to be honest the kinematics on that thing are bs lmao.
For comparison: AMRAAM ER: 75.96 sec
IRIS T: 75.31
9M317MA: 43.81
Type O3: 62.29
Aster 30: 67.62
Derby ER: 94.81 (lol) @MiGoon_Fox-3
He does kinda have a point regarding the SPAA discrepancy
No , that’s just for information. In-game it’s completely different. The same missile needs to lock onto a target to detonate, 20 km gives the helicopter 15 seconds to react. The moral of the story is that, at the 17 km he mentions, all anti-airs have problems.
but no other country has the same problems as Russia in War Thunder
The thing is, in the war against helicopters, anti-air cant do anything if heli player is good , after and before MILT
Plus the problem in that graph is that it records every X and Y co-ordinates of SPAA launch ranges, not lock ranges. It’s true that once it locks on something, a battery can track it until far far away (just look at nuclear escalation to make sure of it), but it’s pointless if it can’t lock beyond a certain distance (in NATO case, 16km except Type 03)
The point here is to figure out if helis can over way high in the sky from 17, 25 and 32km away depending on the heli, and lock targets with MITL without worrying about getting shot down.
But if we’re talking about MILT, this whole debate doesn’t even make sense, I could be 4 km behind a hill and the anti-air still wouldn’t be able to kill me
?? There are maps where the anti-air can’t spot you, and if you spawn on the helipad further away, you’ll always have time to react if you play it right
So pantsir S1 but worse without the SM SV allrounder on top. Which is precisely the discrepancy im talking about.
If the AA cant spot you at all then both are useless and interception is prio 1 and spawning further away doesnt change the fact that russian heli pilots have about twice the reaction time at all times
But NATO doesn’t have anything like the Pantsir, just as Russia doesn’t have things that NATO does.
It’s always the same old story, apart from the fact that, statistically speaking, ITO and Adats have the same fucking KD as Panstir
Even with the Panstir SMSV, the Russians are unable to stop the Orbital Spice 250 Strike
